Why do you say that Davoodoo? IMO there are good and bad women playing poker. The same happens with men. The only thing is that there are less women playing.

Rise of the women... How long do you think it will be before a woman wins the main event? I know thats probably not a good question as i do not know the percentage of women entred. But what does this article really say about men?.......... That we are all as stupid. Why do people presume men are the more agressive sex? and we all know that you need controlled agression rather than balls out fighting agression. so why arnt women better than men?........Coz they want to play poker thats all there no better than the rest of us.

lol np Davoodoo and yes I do agree on some women just play "stupidly" and they really should not be there. But on the other hand so do many men. As B1gfoot said "untill proven otherwise"

IMO Daniel Nagreanu is a BIATCH and a whinny one at that Can't stand him or his "thoughts and opinions" or his play for that matter. And don't even get me started on the way he dresses.

The truth is that the best poker names in the world are men, but there are a lot of good female players too. As it is oin football it is a men`s sport! But she was right sometimes some players underestimate women!

not quite sure if its that good. if your taken serious as poker player then you can allow your self to do some things you actually wouldnt do. i find reputation is very important. otherwise it also has its use if they think your an idiot, but in the long run i find having a good reputation is way better. of course we underestimate them, 5000years long they didnt leave the kitchen now they claim the biggest manager jobs physicaly we are simply better. not sayin a women cant be better as a man, but when it comes best vs best then we bang you

Annie Duke is right. If women's oponents cant believe they have skill, they will give their chips easier to them. Thats the way things work with everybody. If everybody knows you are a pro, they will only confront you with very good hands, but if you are unknown and look have a dumb look, they will try with worst hands.
